Although only approximately 10% of the US population are '''[[Left-handed|left-handed]]''', a large portion of the [[Characters|characters]] in the [[Homestar Runner universe]] appear to be either left-handed or [[Cross-dominance|ambidextrous]] (even though some characters do not have [[Lack of Visible Arms|visible arms]]). Since all 3 of [[The Brothers Strong]] are ambidextrous, it may be a trait that runs in the family. In fact, given how different they really are from each other, it may be the only trait they have in common.
